Louis: Okay, people! Listen up.

A new attorney hasjoined
us, Faye Richardson.

Faye: If you want me gone, there's
only one way to make that happen,

convince me you people
can be trusted to fly right.

I want you to find a
loophole in the bar's bylaws

that I can use
to force them to remove her.

I come here and give you
a chance to clean up your act,

but I find out the managing
partner wants me gone so badly,

he ordered someone
to hack the New York bar!

Louis, you don't understand.
She knew before I even told her.

Bullshit. You are fired.

Louis, you had no right
to ask him that.

Right, Harvey?

Right.

You're just agreeing with Donna

because you don't want her
to be mad at you

now that you're
in a relationship.

You may be special master,
but I'm managing partner.

That gives me certain rights...

You're not
managing partner anymore.

Effective immediately.

You're stripped of your title
and all the duties that go with it.

Here, this might take
the edge off.

Okay, Sheila,
I just got demoted.

It's the worst thing
that's ever happened to me.

How is a cup of rooibos
going to take the edge off?

Just drink it.

Good. Now, I have to ask,

is this really the worst thing

that's ever happened to you?

Because as I recall,

you didn't even want
managing partner

when Donna asked you to take it.

Because she asked me the night
I found out you were pregnant.

It was the only time in my entire life
I would've said I didn't want the job.

And did you actually
enjoy it once you had it?

You know I did. Really?

Trying to manage
your best friend,

accepting Brian Altman's
resignation,

taking Robert Zane's name
off the wall.

Sheila, you said you fell in love
with me because I was a lion.

Now I'm just a housecat
with his balls cut off.

Louis... hear what I just said?

I'm a ball-less cat.

Which reminds me, when
are we getting another cat?

I'll tell you when. Never!

But you said you'd be open
to a hairless!

That was said
in a vulnerable moment!

Louis, the point is,

it's not the end of the world,

and this isn't going
to last forever.

Sheila, I know the job
wasn't sunshine and rainbows,

but I was getting
really good at it.

And I don't know how long I can
keep going to work not being in charge.

Hey. Hey.

Couldn't help but notice you
didn't come over last night.

I know.

Did you also know
that's the first night

we haven't spent
together since...

I did.

Donna, what's going on?

I didn't know how to make sense

of you taking my side with Louis

when you didn't agree with me.

What do you mean?
I thought you would like that.

Well, I don't.

I don't want you saying things
that you don't believe.

And I want to know
why you did it.

I guess because I was
afraid you'd be mad at me.

Well, that's never
stopped you before.

Because before,
we weren't together.

Oh, my god. Of course.

Harvey, I'm not gonna leave you.

And I'm certainly
not gonna leave you

over something
that happens here.

I also don't want something
that happens here

to be the reason we don't
spend the night together.

Neither do I.

I guess we're just gonna have
to figure out a way

to make sure that our work
doesn't intrude on our lives.

Well, what if I said

we could start by going out
one night a week, just us,

and talk about anything
but this place?

I'd say that's a great idea.

What?

Where did you get this idea for
the whole once-a-week dinner thing?

All right, look.

Once in a while,
not on a regular basis...

I like to watch Oprah
in the mornings.

No way.

It can't be that.
I'm not buying it.

I'm serious, Donna.

You'd be surprised
how common a problem it is

for couples to strike
the right work-life balance.

Who are you? Look, I
know things about you, too.

Does the word "Albuquerque"
mean anything to you?

Now, I told you that
in confidence,

and for you to bring that
up now, that is totally...

You see? I got ya.
Gretchen: I hate to interrupt,

but you two need to drop whatever
you're doing and go see Louis.

What is it, Gretchen?

Faye stripped him of
managing partner last night.

Oh, my god.

We need to go to him right now.

You go to him.

I need to go see Faye.

Isn't it enough
you took his firm?

You had to take his title, too?

I take it you heard about Louis.

You're damn right I did,
and this isn't gonna stand.

It is, because he instructed a
subordinate to hack the New York bar.

He said he didn't order Benjamin
to do that, and I believe him.

I don't care what you believe.

He tried to fire the man
when he got caught.

That's unacceptable.

Damn it, not everybody has
to do everything by your book.

And what you're still
failing to comprehend

is that if you choose to disobey
me, there'ii be consequences.

You want consequences,
I'll give you consequences.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means Louis may not
be managing partner anymore,

but I'm sure as he” not
answering to you.

See the money,
wanna stay for your meal

get another piece of pie
for your wife

everybody wanna know how it feel

everybody wanna see
what it's like

I'll even eat a bean pie
I don't mind

me and missy is so early

busy, busy making money

all right!

All step back I'm 'bout to dance

the greenback boogie

Louis, I just heard.

Well, good for you.
I don't want to talk about it.

Okay, then why don't you tell
me what you're gonna do about it?

I got demoted, Donna.
There's nothing I can do about it,

and I'd rather not dwell on it,

so unless you want to get Harvey

so the two of you
can gang up on me again,

I would rather be alone.

Louis,

we didn't gang up on you.

What the hell would you call it?

A mistake.

And if it makes
you feel any better,

I already spoke
to Harvey about it,

because you weren't
the only one upset

about him siding with me.

Why would that upset you?

Probably because my sister
turned every man she was ever with

into a doormat,
but that's not the point.

You have a sister? Not
the point either, Louis.

She's much older, and I
don't want to talk about her.

What I want to say is that what happened
last night will never happen again.

I don't want our relationship
to affect how we treat you.

You really mean that? I do.

And, Louis, if you ever need
me or Harvey

during any of this
Faye bullshit,

we are here for you.

Hey, you hear about Louis?

Of course I did.
It's all over the firm.

Well? Well, what?

What are we gonna do about it?

We're not gonna do
anything about it,

because doing shit like
whatever you're thinking of

is what got us in this
mess in the first place.

Are you trying
to put this on me?

Samantha, I am fully aware that
you are not the reason she is here,

but now that she is here, I'm
not gonna make things worse

by doing more unethical shit.

Then what if we could
come up with a way

to get her out on the up-and-up?

What kind of way?

I don't know,
but we are lawyers.

We ought to be able
to come up with something.

You're a lawyer?

I thought all you did
was sashay in a room,

tell someone you got them,
and make them do what you want.

Well, that was my major,

but I have been known
to open a book or two.

Look, Alex,

I have grown
really fond of Louis.

He's gotta be hurting.

What do you say
we at least give it a try?

Okay, Samantha.

I'm in.

Mr. Specter.

I agreed to meet with you,
but I have to tell you,

the last person I need
right now is another lawyer.

Please, call me Harvey,

and the last person you need

is another asshole whose
agenda is at odds with your own.

And what agenda is that?

Look, you didn't want
this takeover,

but your board used your own
law firm to push it through anyway.

How do you know that?

Because I know what it's like
to have the house you built

get handed over to someone else,

and it just so happens
the people doing it to you

are related to the woman
who's doing it to me.

So you're saying don't hire you

because you care about me,

do it because we share
a common enemy?

You want your lawyer
to give you a hug,

or you want him to get
the job done?

I want my goddamn company back.

Then the first thing
we need to do

is put the brakes on this
sale by suing the board.

A ceo can't sue his own company.

As ceo, no, he can't.

As a shareholder, he can.

Seems like you put a lot
of thought into this

before you came to see me.

Think what I'll do
once you officially hire me.

What do you say?

I say start drafting that suit.

Took care of that
before I got here, too.

Dan, we do this, they're
not gonna take it lying down.

I need to know you're all in.

I'm already losing control
of my company.

What else have I got to lose?

Katrina, do you have a moment?

Actually, Susan, this isn't a
great time. I'm neck-deep in the...

The versalife case, I know.

Well, you probably don't know
that this firm

nearly lost versalife once
because of me

and I'm not about
to let it happen again.

Which is all the more reason
to let me help you.

Help me?

I noticed you've been working
without an associate

ever since Brian resigned.

And you thought if you
could fill Brian's shoes,

I'd take you on as my associate.

Something like that.

Well, I appreciate you
putting yourself out there,

but I've got this handled.

Look, in your discovery,
there's an email

from your ceo to his board
about their stock tanking.

I know that, but it was
after it had already started.

The original date
was whited out.

See? You can tell.

It's not a smoking gun...

But we need to be able
to explain it.

Good find, Susan.

If you hadn't caught that,
we would've been in trouble.

Does that mean
we're working together?

It means I'm giving you
a chance.

Saul: Louis, I'm so glad you were
able to have the time to come out.

Well, honestly, your honor,

I could use the time
out of the office.

Don't start with the
"your honor" crap, okay?

I'm here as your friend.
Okay, then, Saul...

Old friend.

Let's get to it. What
kind of trouble youin?

Louis, I'm not here about my
troubles. I'm here about yours.

What are you talking about?

You remember when
we were back at Harvard

and you charted out
your whole career?

Partner at
a top law firm, check.

Get my name on the wall, check.

And once I've done all that,

become a judge.

But what does that have
to do with anything?

Well, it has to do with the fact

that Amy janon's seat
is opening up

and you'd be the perfect
person to replace her.

Saul, are you offering me
a judgeship?

I am.

This has something to do with
Faye Richardson, doesn't it?

Damn it. Louis,
your ship is sinking,

and you shouldn't have
to go down with it.

Saul, that is bullshit.

I can weather this storm,
and I don't need your charity.

It's not charity.

You're the best lawyer
I ever worked with.

And normally I'd say,

"don't worry.
It'll come around again."

But you come out on the
wrong side of this Faye thing,

and the only robe
you're ever gonna wear

is the one that's hanging
in your bathroom.

What the hell is this?

It's a recusal form
for you to sign.

It turns out, I got a case
against your old firm,

and make no mistake,
I'm taking it.

I get it.

You don't think I've embraced
this firm. Vveh, I have.

So as long as you
conduct yourself aboveboard,

I won'tjust sign this,
I'll be rooting for you.

Bullshit. You'll root for the
people who embraced your system.

But won't matter, because
after I kick their ass,

the world's gonna know my
system is better than yours.

And what system is that?

The one where you play
by whatever rules suit you?

Because if that's what
you're gonna use to win this...

I'll tell you what
I'm gonna use to win.

Whatever I fucking have to.

Then I'll be forced
to remind you,

you cross one line, and
you'll be out on your ass.

I don't need to cross
any lines, Faye.

You de-balled
these guys so much,

all I had to do
was threaten a lawsuit,

and they're shaking
in their boots.

So unless you're here to take
my title like you took Louis',

we're done.

I'll be watching you.

Enjoy the show.

Louis: Sheila...

I want to talk to you
about something

because you're probably
gonna hear about it anyway,

but I want you
to hear it from me.

What is it, Louis?

I was offered a judgeship,
and I turned it down.

You turned down a judgeship
without even discussing it with me?

Louis, being ajudge has
always been your dream.

I know that.

But a judge makes
a fifth of what I do.

We have a child on the way,

not to mention my firm
is in trouble.

I don't want to leave
my friends in the lurch.

If they were really
your friends,

they wouldn't be asking you
to turn this down.

They didn't ask me
to turn it down,

because I didn't tell
them about it.

Well, you didn't tell me
about it either!

Okay, Sheila, what is going on?

Where is this coming from?

I went to Saul, Louis.

You did what?

You said you didn't know how long
you could keep going not being in charge.

So you fabricated
a judgeship for me?

I didn't fabricate anything.

Every time I see the man, he
says you belong on the bench.

When iwent to him, Louis,

he was overjoyed.

He was? He was.

Louis, Saul said
if things don't work out,

you will never get
this chance again.

All I'm asking is for you
to think about it.

Okay, Sheila. I'll sleep on it.

Mmm, I got it.

Then lay it on me, because
we've been at this for hours,

and I'm about to give
up. Okay, look here.

"If the presence
of a special master

"causes significant harm
to a firm,

"they can be removed."

But she hasn't caused any harm.

She hasn't caused any harm yet.

But if all of a sudden, a
client left, said it was her fault,

and then that started
an avalanche...

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What are you talking about?

I'm talking about going
to Gavin Andrews,

getting him toleave_.
Are you crazy?

Just hear me out. No, Samantha.

Inducing a client to leave
isn't Faye causing us harm.

It's us causing us harm.

He'd come back! I don't care!

This discussion is
over. Jesus Christ,

it's one little thing
to get her out of our lives.

It's not a little thing.
It's conspiracy.

And it sure as hell isn't on the
up-and-up like you agreed to.

I don't believe it. When did you
become such a goddamn coward?

Excuse me? You had
Katrina pretend to be me,

and you did that because
you had the balls to win.

And if I say yes because
you call me a coward,

then I am one.

So do what you want,
but I'm not fucking doing it.

And neither should you.

I have to say,

we may end up getting
totally screwed on this, but...

Susan, you have really done
your research.

Thank you.
That means a lot to me.

Can I ask your advice
on something?

It's kind of personal.

Of course, Susan. What is it?

So there's this paralegal.

He's smart and funny,
and he and I just click.

I've certainly seen
that happen before.

I just... I know how closely
you worked with Brian,

and I guess I want to know
how you kept things professional.

I don't want to get
into me and Brian, Susan,

but if you want my advice,

I'd find a different paralegal.

Thanks.

All right, let's get
back to this.

Actually, I had an idea.

Lead counsel on the other side
is a longtime family friend.

What if I could convince her
to settle?

That's why you picked
this case, isn't it?

Because you thought you could
use your connections to impress me?

There's nothing wrong with
taking advantage of an opportunity.

No, you're right. There isn't.

But in this particular instance,

what you're proposing
isn't going to work.

But how do you know?

Because I know.

But” Susan,

being an associate means
knowing when to drop it.

Show me you can do that.

Louis: If it pleases the court,

I would like to tell a story
about a noble ship's captain,

a villainous pirate by the
name of Faye pooperson,

and a foul miscarriage
of justice.

Objection, your honor.
He's testifying.

And my name isn't pooperson.

Richardson, pooperson,
what's the difference?

That's unorthodox,
but I'll allow it.

You're just him in awig.

A wig, if I may say,
you are rocking, your honor.

If I weren't married,
I'd be all over that.

I bet he's so much better
than Harvey.

I am. Please proceed.

Your honor, paragraph five
of the nautical code

states that a captain
shall not relinquish command

to a party of pirates.

If anyone here is
a pirate, it's him,

and I am the British Navy
in this situation.

Objection! She's hijacking
my metaphor!

Sustained. Miss pooperson,
this is your only warning.

He hasn't even called a witness.

She does have a point.

I don't need a witness to prove
my case to this jury of my peers.

Did he say peers?

I know. Can you
believe this guy?

I think we've heard enough.

Mr. Foreman, has the
jury reached a verdict?

We have, your honor.

We find the defendant guilty
on all charges.

As if there was any question.

Miss Richardson, I hereby
sentence you to death.

Death? I don't even know
what I'm on trial for!

And that's the beauty of this
whole thing. Bailiff, take her away.

With pleasure.

Well done. Well done.

For the record,

I meant what I said about
him being better than Harvey.

So true, so true.

So true, so true.

There were really 12 harveys?

I know, right? It was fantastic.

Maybe Sheila's right.
Maybe I should say yes.

I'd be in charge, and no one
would ever push me around again.

True, but...

Stan, a jury of harveys
just found in my favor.

Don't tell me
you're gonna shit on this.

Louis, I'm sorry,

but I must point out

that your dream was filled
with the people you work with.

You are envisioning yourself
in a fantasy world

still surrounded by them.

What's your point?

My point is,
if you take the job,

they will not be there with you.

Oh, god.

This whole time, I was worried
about what they would do without me.

I hadn't even thought about
what I'd do without them.

And if you do think about that?

I think they're everything to me

and I don't want to go anywhere.

Donna, good,
I was hoping you were in,

because I need a little help.

Sure, Faye, with what?

You want me to tell Alex
Williams he's an associate now?

I take it you don't like
my decision regarding Louis.

Dislike is one of the ways of
describing my feelings for you, Faye.

I doubt you want
to hear the other.

Then I'll get to it.

Whether you like it or not, I
am acting managing partner now,

which means I have a full
plate and no help with it.

I need a secretary.

You want me
to be your secretary?

I need you to help me
get through the next few days,

and according to everyone,

you were the best secretary
this firm ever had.

I was the best secretary
any firm ever had,

which is one of the reasons
I am now coo.

Donna, I know you think
this is below your pay grade...

It is below my pay grade.

But more importantly,
it sends a message

that I am more valuable
as your lackey

than in my real position.

And I've had itwith people
talking about messages

when the only message I
keep getting is, "go to hell."

So ifyou're as loyal to this
firm as you say you are,

then accept I need you
to do this.

And if I don't?

Are you gonna demote me
like you did to Louis?

Louis used his position to
coerce borderline illegal behavior.

I'm asking you
to manage some files.

I could demote if you refuse,

but does it really need
to come to that?

You'll have your files taken
care of by the end of the day.

Thank you.

Hey. Can I come in?

If I say no, you gonna say
it's because I'm a coward?

Alex...

I am so sorry.

I should not have said
what I said.

I know it's not an excuse,

but I've just really been
off-kilter since Robert left.

It might not be an excuse,

but it's an explanation.

And I hope I'm not overstepping,

but I think I know
what you need right now.

What do you mean?

When things aren't going well
for me in one part of my life,

I try to look to another.

Usually that other part
is family.

Are you trying to adopt me?

Let's take it
one step at a time.

Why don't you come over to
the house for dinner tonight?

It may not be the answer
to your problems, but...

Rosalie's been asking
about you. Joy loves you.

Are you sure? Yeah.

I think it'll be fun for you.

Though if it goes anything
like our lunch with Rosalie,

it sure as shit
won't be fun for me.

You know what I meant.

I did.

You in?

Pdloveto. Thank you, Alex.

Dan, hey. Did you see the...

Dan: What the hell
have you been doing?

What we said I'd do...

Suing them is one thing,

but you took out a full-page ad

saying that they're endangering

the entire future
of the company.

Dan, you said you'd stick
with the plan,

and if a thing like this
is gonna rattle you...

Dan: It didn't rattle me.

It rattled them, and it's
gonna be a little difficult

to stick it out
when I've been fired.

What? They can't do that
in the middle of litigation.

Well, they did.

And even if I win this thing,
I won't get my company back.

Listen to me. It's not over.

I can fix it. Dan: Then fix it,

because if I lose everything
from all this,

instead of suing the board,
I'll be suing you.

Harvey: You're not gonna
believe this shit. Harvey...

I just got a call
from Dan foley.

They fired him, and now
he's threatening to sue me.

And I'm sorry about that, but
right now, I don't have time.

Donna, I just told you
I almost got sued...

But you didn't get sued,

and you aren't the only one
sick of that woman.

What?

She had the nerve to ask me
to be her secretary,

so I'm sorry that your
case isn't going well,

but right now, I don't...
Where are you going?

I'm gonna go to that woman and
tell her she can do her own work.

You're not her servant.

Harvey, I don't need you
to fight my battles for me.

And yesterday you said

we shouldn't let what
happens here come between us.

Well, it's coming between us,

and I'm gonna put a stop to it.

You're right. I did say that.

But the way to keep Faye from
coming between us isn't fighting her.

It's using your idea.

What are you talking about?

We're gonna go out
for an early dinner,

and we're gonna talk
about anything

but this place and that woman.

Donna, my client just got fired.

And he's still gonna
be fired in three hours,

but if I know you,
if you clear your head,

he might not be fired in four.

So what do you say?

I say I'm in the mood
for Italian.

Absolutely, thank you.

Katrina, you wanted to see me?

I didn't just want
to see you, Susan.

I want to know why
you willfully disregarded me

by contacting
your family friend.

Okay, I know you
asked me not to, but...

No, Susan, I told you not to.

Because not only
is it unprofessional,

it's as much as telling
them they have us.

I'm sorry. I was only
trying to help us win.

No, you were trying
to help yourself,

and that is the last thing
I need in an associate.

You're off this case.

I think you should reconsider.

And why would I ever do that?

Because I know
why Brian really left.

What did you just say to me?

I said a senior partner
and a married associate

were working closely together,
working nights together,

until suddenly he up and left
with no explanation,

nojob lined up...

Susan, you do not want
to do this.

Do what?

Point out that things went too
far and you bought his silence

by giving him
one of your clients?

Brian Altman left

because he decided
it was best for his family.

Yeah, I bet he did.

Well, unless you want
Faye Richardson

to suddenly be made aware
of the situation,

you'll make me your associate
by the end of the week.

Donna, there you are.

No, Gretchen, there I go,

because I'm just on my way out.

Well, you might want to stop
by Faye's office first.

She's looking for you.

Listen,

do me a favor and don't
tell her you ran into me.

What's going on, red?

She asked me to do some
secretarial work for her,

and I didn't finish it.

But I have a dinner
at quattro gatti tonight,

and I absolutely cannot move it.

Which means you need someone
to run interference

while you and Harvey
get your smush face on.

That's right. I said it.

Wait. You know
about me and Harvey?

Please, you think Louis
can keep his mouth shut?

I asked him
what he wanted for lunch,

and he blurted out,

"Harvey and Donna did it!"

Did he really do that?

Might as well have.

I'm happy for you, darling.
So you go on out to dinner.

I'll take care of whatever
miss high and mighty needs.

No, Gretchen, I couldn't
ask you to do that for me.

You're not asking. I'm telling.

Don't worry. I'll be so
good to that woman,

she won't even think
to ask where you are.

Thank you, Gretchen.

I owe you one.

Hey, you. Girl with coffee.
Any idea where Gretchen is?

I'm sorry, I don't.

Well, if you see her, tell her
I've been looking all over for her.

I know where she is,
Louis. Jesus Christ.

In fact, I've been looking
all over for you.

She's working for me
on a temporary basis.

I'm sorry. Say that again,

because my ears are a
little clogged with rage.

She did some work for me.
It was excellent...

Well, then clone her, because
you're not taking my secretary.

I didn't want
your secretary, Louis.

I asked Donna to handle my work,

but she pawned it off on
Gretchen, and here we are.

I don't care what Donna did.
You have no right to do this.

Louis, if you just calm
down, I assure you,

once I get up and running,
you can have her back.

And if I don't calm down?

You know, I hear that
a lot, "and if I don't?"

Well, not everything's
a threat, Louis.

But if you insist
on making it one,

I promise you'll find
what you're looking for.

Oh, isn't this nice?

Where the hell is Donna?

Calm down, Louis. I'm
not gonna be here forever.

You are not gonna be
here at all,

because it doesn't take
a genius to figure out

that she went
for a tryst with Harvey.

You got stuck holding the ball,

and I'm getting her
back in here right now.

It wasn't a tryst,
and I didn't get stuck.

I volunteered.

Why the hell would you do that?

'Cause they're starting
a new relationship.

And if you cared about them
at all, you'd leave them alone.

Are you telling me they couldn't
pick up the phone when I called?

They probably
didn't even see the call.

They're out together.

Can't you understand that?

Gretchen...

I have endured more
humiliation in the last week

than I ever thought
was possible.

Donna specifically told me

that she would not let her
relationship with Harvey

get in the way
if I needed support.

On a scale from one to 10,

how much support do
you think I need right now?

Okay, Louis, I'm gonna
tell you where they are,

but I think you should
let it go till tomorrow.

The thing that really sets me
off is her holier-than-thou act.

I mean, nobody
is that goody two-shoes.

Yeah, well, what if she is?

And what if bill Buckner
would've fielded that ball?

Okay, I don't know who that is,

but it is time
we changed the subject,

because we said no work talk,

and we just spent half a bottle
of wine on Faye Richardson.

You're right.

Let's talk about something
else. Anything else.

Water's pretty good. Yeah.

It's wet. It's very wet.

So, have you read
any good books lately?

Books?

That's the best you've got?
Water and books?

Hey, I don't see you
holding up your end.

"Water is wet"? Who says that?

I know! I got flustered!

And I mean, who wouldn't?

We have spent
almost every minute

of every day together
for the last 15 years,

and now we can't think of a
single thing to say to each other.

What if that's it?

What ifwe're all out of
things to say to each other?

That's what you say
to me when I'm worried

that we have nothing to say?

What is wrong with
you? Oh, my god.

What?

You just reminded me
of Ricky Garfield's mom.

He was new in town.
I was 16 years old.

I went over to his house, and
there she was, beautiful redhead.

Had a crush on her
from the second I saw her.

Just realized you've always
reminded me of her.

What?

It's just nice to know that there are
still things I get to find out about you.

I like that.

Now how about you tell me
something I don't know about you?

Alex, thank you for
inviting me to your home.

This is exactly what I needed.

Well, I sure as hell couldn't take
you bowling like I did with Louis.

You took Louis bowling?
How did that go?

You'd be surprised.

He actually bowled
a perfect game.

Getout ishnyounot

all I had to do was help
him tap into his rage.

I can see that.

A few months ago,
we confronted his mugger.

He turned into a wild animal.

Whoa, look who decided
to show up!

And perfect timing.
I've got Chinese.

Samantha, you can have
Debbie's seat.

She's got tap tonight.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

I was looking forward
to meeting her,

because if she's half
as cool as her sister...

She's not.

Nothing like the love
of a sibling.

Hey, babe, I saw your bumper.

Did you want me to take
your car in tomorrow?

What are you talking about?

Have you not seen
the back of your car?

Looks like you hit
a yellow water buffalo.

Well, that's interesting,

because the last person
to drive the car was joy.

Don't look at me. Maybe
somebody backed into you.

Joy, what happened?

Fine, I hit a pole in the parking
garage. It's not a big deal.

The big deal is that

you were hoping
we wouldn't notice

until long after
you'd driven the car.

I wasn't thinking that. I just
didn't want you to be mad at me.

And we wouldn't have been,
but we are now.

You have two choices.
You either pay for it,

or you're not driving
anywhere for a month.

What..thafss0thfiau! Fauornot

that's the way it's gonna be.

Now, let's all sit down

and try to still have
a pleasant evening.

Donna: I'm just
saying, it's not unusual

for a person to think that
after they've had one.

You thought you'd been
poisoned by a peppercorn?

A szechuan peppercorn, and I
didn't think that it poisoned me.

I thought someone
had poisoned me.

Haven't you ever had one?

The pertinent question
isn't whether I've had them.

It's, what did you do
to deserve getting poisoned?

Well, that is
neither here nor there.

I knew it. You're a black widow.

Harvey, if I was a black widow,

I'd be the one doing
the poisoning.

You seem to know too much
about this subject.

I'm breaking up with you.

Good, I really think this
whole thing has run its course.

Holy shit.

Clearing my head
really did help.

I think I know
why they fired Dan.

And I think I know
what I'm gonna do about it.

Then let's go do it.

No. Not until tomorrow.

Tonight is for us.

You know, I think
you might be getting

the hang of this
whole dinner thing.

Telling me old stories,

making me feel...

Oh, shoot, it's Louis.
Maybe I should get it.

Donna, the whole point
of tonight was just us.

I know, but after
the whole Faye thing,

I promised that we'd be there
for him if he needed us.

If there's an emergency,
he'll leave a voice mail.

You can call him right back.

Good. Now, we are gonna
pay the check,

and then I'm gonna go home
and I'm gonna be young Harvey,

and you are gonna be
Ricky Garfield's mom.

You're in early.

I usually am.
What can I do for you?

I had dinner last night
with Alex and his family,

and it reminded me that the
closest thing I have to family

are the people at this firm.

I never thanked you for
standing up to me with Lucas, so,

thank you.

Speaking of standing up,

I stood up to you
more than once.

How did you know when to
give in to me and when not to?

Every time you stood up to me,

I backed down

because you were in the right.

So I guess the question is,
are you in the right?

I am in the right.

The problem is,
the person standing up to me

has information
I don't want coming out.

Well, I can't tell you
the answer, Katrina,

but I can tell you,
whoever it is,

if you give them an inch,
they will take a mile.

You fired him, didn't you?

What?

You ran Johnson and Powell when
Dan foley's contract was written.

You knew there was a clause
that allowed them

to fire him during litigation,
and you had them pull the trigger.

Are you out of your mind?

Are you gonna tell me you didn't have
a conversation with them about me?

Excuse me?

Right there. A 15-minute call

with you and Johnson and Powell

not two hours
after you and I spoke.

You dug into my phone records?

Answer my question, or
we'll do it in a deposition.

Did you talk to them about me?

I have a subpoena right here,

and, Faye, hisntgonnalookgood

having an ethics expert
lie under oath.

Okay. You're right.
You got to me.

You pissed me off so much,

I was rooting for you to lose,

but unlike you,
I wouldn't act on that.

Then how do you
explain the phone call?

Easily. I didn't call them.
They called me.

And the reason they did was to
say what an asshole you were.

Itwas a 15-minute phone call.

They had plenty
to say on the matter,

but what they didn't do
is ask for my help,

because if they had,

my next call would've been
to the New York bar.

Bullshit.

Then subpoena me. I'll be
happy to say all that under oath.

And while you're at it,

subpoena Johnson and Powell.
They'll say the same thing.

And then maybe you'll realize

all you accomplished
by taking this case

was getting Dan foley fired.

Susan, do you mind
coming with me?

I take it you thought
about what we discussed?

I did.

And if you're going to be my
associate, you'll need an office.

We just need to get it approved.

Katrina, I've
had a bit of a long morning,

so whatever it is...
This'll just take a minute.

I know you run
a tight ethical ship,

and Susan has something she
would like to bring to your attention.

I'm listening.

Susan's too modest to
toot her own horn, so I will.

We were working
on the versalife case together

when Susan made a mistake.

That doesn't sound like
something to toot your horn about.

Katrina: It wasn't the mistake.

It's what she did aftennards.

Susan came to me and
owned up to what she did.

Is this true?

Yes, it is.

Then it's nice to know the culture
here hasn't corrupted everyone.

Was there something else?

Susan?

No, nothing else.

Then keep up the good work.

Louis, whatever it is,
now is not a great time.

Oh, I'm sure it's not.
Never seems to be anymore.

I just thought you should be
the first to know.

Know what?

I'm leaving.

To take a judgeship.

Now? You're leaving now?

I know it's not
great timing, but...

Are you kidding me?
How could you do this to us?

We're in the middle of a war!

A war that has cost me
my title and my dignity.

And I keep waiting for the
shoes to finish dropping,

but they keep raining down.

Well, then let it rain!
You can fight this.

Don't you get it? I'm not you.

I'm not the guy
it works out for.

You don't need to be me.

No, I don't,

but I don't even have you
in my goddamn corner anymore.

Louis...
Okay, you know what? Fine!

You want the truth?

I can take every last humiliation
that woman can dish out,

but the one thing
that I can't take

is you and Donna laughing at me.

What are you talking
about? I saw you.

I went to your restaurant
last night.

I saw you see it was me calling,

you sent it to voice mail,
and you started laughing.

We weren't laughing at you.

We agreed not
to let work intrude,

so we didn't answer, and then I
made a joke about something else.

Swear to me that's true.

I swear.

Louis...

I'm in your corner.

But you didn't even come see me.

Because I've been
fighting for you.

I get that, Harvey,
but the truth is,

I'd rather you'd just
come sit with me

than go tilting at windmills.

Windmills? What are you
talking about?

It's man of la mancha.
Why do I even?

I should've come to you, Louis.

I just didn't know what to say,

because I couldn't stand

what she was doing to my friend.

So, you want to become
ajudge, I understand.

It's just, we've been
through so much together.

Please, don't let me
tilting at wind chimes

be the thing
that pulls us apart.

It's windmills.

Windmills, whatever.

I was wondering
when you'd show up.

How did you know iwouldn't
tell Faye about you and Brian?

I didn't.

I just knew I'd rather
you tell her than find out

what you'd be like
in six months.

Then why not just turn me in?

Because I was ambitious
when I first got here, too.

And ambition isn't
a bad thing, Susan,

but it can't be all you have.

Alex, do you have a sec?

Yes, and before
you say anything,

I'm sorry about last night.

It's not what I had in mind.

Actually, I came here
to thank you for it.

Come on, Samantha. I know
my daughter. It was terrible.

It wasn't terrible.

It was family, and it was
exactly what I needed.

Well, if that's what you needed,

you're in worse shape
than I thought.

I decided to find out
who my biological parents are.

What?

I wasn't gonna tell you,

but you're being such a dipshit,

I thought you should know.

Even watching you fight
made me appreciate

what a wonderful family
you have.

And then I got to thinking
how joy is so much a cross

between you and Rosalie,

andlthought

I have to know.

So all I have to do
is be a dipshit

and you'll show me
your soft side?

Worked for Robert.

Thank you for trusting me
with that, Samantha.

It means a lot.

It means a lot to me, too.

Thanks for having me over.

Sheila: Yup.

Donna: Okay, wait,
let me get this straight.

His mankini was your idea?

Sheila: You'd be surprised
how much a little constriction

increases virility
in the bedroom.

That is an unwanted fact.

Donna.

What are you doing here?

She came over to say how much
she wants you to stay at the firm.

I'll admit, at first,
I wasn't in favor...

But then I told her that Harvey
and I would never leave you.

Then I guess it's a good thing
I already decided to stay.

You did?

I did.

Well,

now that I don't have to spend
the rest of my night begging,

there really is just one
thing left for us to do.

Are you saying
what I think you're saying?

I am.

Girls' night.

Oh, my god.
It's really happening.

Mmm-hmm. Are we
watching dirty dancing?

Should we start with
a round of "I never"?

Doesn't matter to me.
Just choose fast.

I go to bed early,

andlwlhave to pee 10
times between now and then,

including in about five seconds.

Donna: It's your call, Louis.

Because tonight,

you are the most important
woman in the room.

Donna, that is the nicest
thing you've ever said to me.

Dirty dancing it is.

Faye, funny running into you.

You appear to be
in fine spirits.

That's because someone
recently reminded me

I'm the guy
it always works out for.

Your modesty is astounding.

It isn't about modesty.
It's about character.

You see, Faye, the reason
things always work out for me

isn't that I sometimes
cross lines.

It's the relationship
I have with people.

What did you do?

I went to Kevin Miller.
He's an old friend of mine.

I told him he'd be a fool to pass
up an opportunity to buy sensatech.

I also told him he'd be
a fool not to hire back

the man that built that
company from scratch.

And what exactly did you do for
Mr. Miller to become his friend?

I got him out ofajam,

like the way I'm willing
to let you out ofone.

Excuse me?

Johnson and Powell
remain sensatech's counsel.

You save face,
and all you have to do

is give Gretchen back to Louis.

I don't believe it.

You're leveraging a client
for your own purposes.

My client is fine with it.
I came through for him.

Well, I'm not fine with it,
and I don't play by your rules.

And what if Gretchen
isn't fine working for you?

I told him it was temporary,

but if you think you're
going to extort me

into getting her back early,

you can hand in your
resignation.

This isn't your firm, Faye.
It's mine.

And I'm not going anywhere.

And neither am I.

And for the record, you said
you'd do anything to win this,

but you haven't crossed
a single line.

So as far as I'm concerned,

I'm doing my job.
